What is a Neck Lift?

For many of us, the neck begins to show age faster than the whole face. Jowls can form from fatty deposits at the jaw line and laxity in the muscles. The neck muscles may begin to separate and hang, creating "bands." Even the skin may droop, resulting in the "turkey wattle" look. If you are experiencing any of these problems, then you may want to consider a neck lift in Spring.

Sometimes, it isn't age that determines the need for a neck lift, also known as platysmaplasty. Other reasons people choose a neck lift in Texas is because they have lost considerable weight or have a hereditary feature they would like to remedy. In fact, many younger people undergo neck lifts in Spring.

The final step is the removal of the excess skin.
